First steps

Check the pack contents 

One Gigaset A68H handset,

one charging cradle,

one mains adapter,

two batteries,

one battery cover,

one user guide.

Setting up the charging cradle

The charging cradle is designed to be operated in enclosed, dry areas at temperatures ranging 
from +5 °C to +45 °C. 

¤

Place the charging cradle on a level, non-slip surface.

The phone's feet do not usually leave any marks on surfaces. However, due to the multitude of 
different varnishes and polishes used on today's furnishings, the occurrence of marks on the 
surfaces cannot be completely ruled out.

Please note: 

Never expose the telephone to the influence of heat sources, direct sunlight or other elec-
trical devices.

Protect your Gigaset from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and vapours.

Connecting the charging cradle 

Please note

Pay attention to the range of the base station.

 

This is up to 300 m in unobstructed outdoor areas and up to 50 m inside buildings.
